I gave a talk on "Consciousness and Psi in Humans and Other Machines" at the Consciousness, Science, Technology and Society (CSTS) conference in Shanghai in early June 2017. Afterwards some folks were asking to see a video of the talk -- but all I had was a noisy/rough video of part of the talk ... so when I got home from the conference I decided to video a recap of the talk on my phone.... This is it.
This is some weird stuff, a fun deviation from my usual stuff about AGI and the Singularity. These are the sorts of wild speculations that often bounce thru my mind late at night -- how to use math and philosophy to grapple with the ultimate cosmic nature of the universe...
(At very least, these out-there musings should serve to counteract the idea some people have, that all Singularitarian AI geeks are naive reductionist materialists...!)

Vernon Neppe, MD, PhD, FRSSAf, is a neuropsychiatrist and head of the Pacific Neuropsychiatric Institute in Seattle. He is a former president of the South AfricanSociety for Psychical Research. He is author, with physicist Edward Close, of Reality Begins with Consciousness: A Paradigm Shift that Works, and author of Déjà VuRevisited, Déjà Vu: A Second Look, Déjà Vu: Glossary and Library, Cry the BelovedMind: A Voyage of Hope, and Innovative Psychopharmacotherapy. His professional publications number over 700. Dr Neppe has amplified many of his concepts in two of the websites linked with his work. On www.Brainvoyage.com, his books are amplified. www.VernonNeppe.org is his gateway and includes more information on the Neppe-Close model of the Triadic Distinction Vortical Paradigm.
Here, Dr. Neppe describes areas of psi research that have all achieved statistical significance at the six sigma level. These include remote viewing, random event generator research, the global consciousness project, the ganzfeld studies, studies on the sense of being stared at, and feeling the future studies based on the work of Daryl Bem, presentiment studies. Neppe also includes some research in the area of survival after death. All of this research shows that human consciousness is capable of interacting with the physical world in ways that bypass the normal sensory and motor systems of the body. Neppe presents a single, multi-dimensional model that could account for psi.
New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi DevelopmentSystems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also past-president of the non-profit IntuitionNetwork, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.

Russell Targ is a physicist who spent several decades working in a US government program exploring "remote viewing" - an apparently anomalous extended characteristic of the mind. Targ is convinced the effect is real. This talk was originally slated as part of a TEDx event in Hollywood in 2013, but the organization pulled their support of the event when they learned about the subjects.

Skeptiko.com is the #1 podcast covering the science of human consciousness. We cover six main categories:
- Near-death experience science and the ever growing body of peer-reviewed research surrounding it.
- Parapsychology and science that defies our current understanding of consciousness.
- Consciousness research and the every expanding scientific understanding of who we are.
- Spirituality and the implications of new scientific discoveries to our understanding of it.
- Others and the strangeness of close encounters.
- Skepticism and what we should make of the "Skeptics".

Consciousness

Consciousness is the state or quality of awareness, or, of being aware of an external object or something within oneself. It has been defined as: sentience, awareness, subjectivity, the ability to experience or to feel, wakefulness, having a sense of selfhood, and the executive control system of the mind. Despite the difficulty in definition, many philosophers believe that there is a broadly shared underlying intuition about what consciousness is. As Max Velmans and Susan Schneider wrote in The Blackwell Companion to Consciousness: "Anything that we are aware of at a given moment forms part of our consciousness, making conscious experience at once the most familiar and most mysterious aspect of our lives."

Western philosophers, since the time of Descartes and Locke, have struggled to comprehend the nature of consciousness and pin down its essential properties. Issues of concern in the philosophy of consciousness include whether the concept is fundamentally coherent; whether consciousness can ever be explained mechanistically; whether non-human consciousness exists and if so how can it be recognized; how consciousness relates to language; whether consciousness can be understood in a way that does not require a dualistic distinction between mental and physical states or properties; and whether it may ever be possible for computing machines like computers or robots to be conscious, a topic studied in the field of artificial intelligence.

Radin's ideas and work have been criticized by scientists and philosophers skeptical of paranormal claims. In addition, the review of Radin's first book, The Conscious Universe, that appeared in Nature charged that Radin ignored the known hoaxes in the field, made statistical errors and ignored plausible non-paranormal explanations for parapsychological data.

All of this research shows that human consciousness is capable of interacting with the physical world in ways that bypass the normal sensory and motor systems of the body. Neppe presents a single, multi-dimensional model that could account for psi.
New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi DevelopmentSystems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also past-president of the non-profit IntuitionNetwork, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.

Russell Targ is a physicist who spent several decades working in a US government program exploring "remote viewing" - an apparently anomalous extended characteristic of the mind. Targ is convinced the effect is real. This talk was originally slated as part of a TEDx event in Hollywood in 2013, but the organization pulled their support of the event when they learned about the subjects.

Wild-Ass Sh*t: Consciousness and Psi from a Euryphysics Perspective

I gave a talk on "Consciousness and Psi in Humans and Other Machines" at the Consciousness, Science, Technology and Society (CSTS) conference in Shanghai in early June 2017. Afterwards some folks were asking to see a video of the talk -- but all I had was a noisy/rough video of part of the talk ... so when I got home from the conference I decided to video a recap of the talk on my phone.... This is it.
This is some weird stuff, a fun deviation from my usual stuff about AGI and the Singularity. These are the sorts of wild speculations that often bounce thru my mind late at night -- how to use math and philosophy to grapple with the ultimate cosmic nature of the universe...

Afterwards some folks were asking to see a video of the talk -- but all I had was a noisy/rough video of part of the talk ... so when I got home from the conference I decided to video a recap of the talk on my phone.... This is it.
This is some weird stuff, a fun deviation from my usual stuff about AGI and the Singularity. These are the sorts of wild speculations that often bounce thru my mind late at night -- how to use math and philosophy to grapple with the ultimate cosmic nature of the universe...
(At very least, these out-there musings should serve to counteract the idea some people have, that all Singularitarian AI geeks are naive reductionist materialists...!)
The slides for the talk are at http://goertzel.org/Consciousness-And-Psi_v1.pdf

Vernon Neppe, MD, PhD, FRSSAf, is a neuropsychiatrist and head of the Pacific Neuropsychiatric Institute in Seattle. He is a former president of the South AfricanSociety for Psychical Research. He is author, with physicist Edward Close, of Reality Begins with Consciousness: A Paradigm Shift that Works, and author of Déjà VuRevisited, Déjà Vu: A Second Look, Déjà Vu: Glossary and Library, Cry the BelovedMind: A Voyage of Hope, and Innovative Psychopharmacotherapy. His professional publications number over 700. Dr Neppe has amplified many of his concepts in two of the websites linked with his work. On www.Brainvoyage.com, his books are amplified. www.VernonNeppe.org is his gateway and includes more information on the Neppe-Close model of the Triadic Distinction Vortical Paradigm.
Here, Dr. Neppe describes areas of psi research that have all achieved statistical significance at the six sigma level. These include remote viewing, random event generator research, the global consciousness project, the ganzfeld studies, studies on the sense of being stared at, and feeling the future studies based on the work of Daryl Bem, presentiment studies. Neppe also includes some research in the area of survival after death. All of this research shows that human consciousness is capable of interacting with the physical world in ways that bypass the normal sensory and motor systems of the body. Neppe presents a single, multi-dimensional model that could account for psi.
New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi DevelopmentSystems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also past-president of the non-profit IntuitionNetwork, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.

The slides for the talk are at http://goertzel.org/Consciousness-And-Psi_v1.pdf

Vernon Neppe, MD, PhD, FRSSAf, is a neuropsychiatrist and head of the Pacific Neuropsychiatric Institute in Seattle. He is a former president of the South AfricanSociety for Psychical Research. He is author, with physicist Edward Close, of Reality Begins with Consciousness: A Paradigm Shift that Works, and author of Déjà VuRevisited, Déjà Vu: A Second Look, Déjà Vu: Glossary and Library, Cry the BelovedMind: A Voyage of Hope, and Innovative Psychopharmacotherapy. His professional publications number over 700. Dr Neppe has amplified many of his concepts in two of the websites linked with his work. On www.Brainvoyage.com, his books are amplified. www.VernonNeppe.org is his gateway and includes more information on the Neppe-Close model of the Triadic Distinction Vortical Paradigm.
Here, Dr. Neppe describes areas of psi research that have all achieved statistical significance at the six sigma level. These include remote viewing, random event generator research, the global consciousness project, the ganzfeld studies, studies on the sense of being stared at, and feeling the future studies based on the work of Daryl Bem, presentiment studies. Neppe also includes some research in the area of survival after death. All of this research shows that human consciousness is capable of interacting with the physical world in ways that bypass the normal sensory and motor systems of the body. Neppe presents a single, multi-dimensional model that could account for psi.
New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi DevelopmentSystems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also past-president of the non-profit IntuitionNetwork, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.

Russell Targ is a physicist who spent several decades working in a US government program exploring "remote viewing" - an apparently anomalous extended characteristic of the mind. Targ is convinced the effect is real. This talk was originally slated as part of a TEDx event in Hollywood in 2013, but the organization pulled their support of the event when they learned about the subjects.

Wild-Ass Sh*t: Consciousness and Psi from a Euryphysics Perspective

I gave a talk on "Consciousness and Psi in Humans and Other Machines" at the Consciousness, Science, Technology and Society (CSTS) conference in Shanghai in early June 2017. Afterwards some folks were asking to see a video of the talk -- but all I had was a noisy/rough video of part of the talk ... so when I got home from the conference I decided to video a recap of the talk on my phone.... This is it.
This is some weird stuff, a fun deviation from my usual stuff about AGI and the Singularity. These are the sorts of wild speculations that often bounce thru my mind late at night -- how to use math and philosophy to grapple with the ultimate cosmic nature of the universe...
(At very least, these out-there musings should serve to counteract the idea some people have, that all Singularitarian AI geeks are naive reductionist materialists...!)
